More quotes by Federico Fellini
Nothing is more honest than a dream.
Federico Fellini
Realism is a bad word. In a sense everything is realistic. I see no line between the imaginary and the real.
Federico Fellini
I always direct the same film. I can't distinguish one from the other.
Federico Fellini
No critic writing about a film could say more than the film itself, although they do their best to make us think the oppposite.
Federico Fellini
Talking about dreams is like talking about movies, since the cinema uses the language of dreams years can pass in a second and you can hop from one place to another. It's a language made of image. And in the real cinema, every object and every light means something, as in a dream.
Federico Fellini
You exist only in what you do.
Federico Fellini
Regrets are a waste of time. They're the past crippling you in the present.
Federico Fellini
Money is everywhere but so is poetry. What we lack are the poets.
Federico Fellini
The greatest danger for artists is total freedom.
Federico Fellini
God may not play dice but he enjoys a good round of Trivial Pursuit every now and again.
Federico Fellini
Marriage, if it is to survive, must be treated as the beginning, not as the happy ending.
Federico Fellini
Everyone knows that time is Death, that Death hides in clocks. Imposing another time powered by the Clock of the Imagination, however, can refuse his law. Here, freed of the Grim Reaper's scythe, we learn that pain is knowledge and all knowledge pain.
Federico Fellini
Going to the cinema is like returning to the womb you sit there, still and meditative in the darkness, waiting for life to appear on the screen.
Federico Fellini
All art is autobiographical.
Federico Fellini
I spent my life trying to cure myself of my education.
Federico Fellini
Our duty as storytellers is to bring people to the station. There each person will choose his or her own train...But we must at least take them to the station...to a point of departure.
Federico Fellini
Nietzsche claimed that his genius was in his nostrils and I think that is a very excellent place for it to be.
Federico Fellini
It's easier to be faithful to a restaurant than it is to a woman.
Federico Fellini
Reality! But what does this word mean? Each has his own reality. I draw upon my personal reality upon the dark side of myself, my unconscious.
Federico Fellini
A different language is a different vision of life.
Federico Fellini
